Bluespot YOGA

Looking for a photography student / newer creative to shoot a few classes at bluespot YOGA.

We want someone with a good eye who can capture real, in-the-moment class energy—plus teacher group + headshots.

If this is you (or you know someone), DM me or send them my way — Staci 🙏🏻

Now… round II of behind-the-scenes photoshoot shares:

1. Just a fun shot with some of my favorite ladies. Julie was baking a baby Mag 🥧.

2. I grabbed Abra’s leg and said “resist me”—she mouthed, “f*ck you.”

3. Remember when we tried to come back from Covid without lavender towels? You all said hellllll no. Touché.

4. Here’s where it gets good… so natural.

5. Katy trying to one-up me.

6. I said bet—and hit her with the casual arm-behind-head pose.

𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 — 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟲 🎉 (𝟭𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗯𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁)

As we get closer, I’ve been feeling a little nostalgic… so here are a few behind-the-scenes moments from a shoot in 2019—right after we moved from Main St. into the garage:

1. Eva Golden — ride or die from day one. If you ask her, she willed both my daughter and our golden (Penny!) into the world. She’s not wrong.

2. I was 5 months pregnant with Marlee during this shoot.

3. I kept my half pony flipped up the entire class. At the time, I was constantly calling people out for fidgeting, so fixing my hair felt like the only way to stay in solidarity with my students.

Today, I’d fix it—and still call it out.

4. Julie in standing head to knee — started as a student, became a teacher, still here.

5. Kyle Caution — to know him is to love him. He moved a few years ago, but we love when he comes back to visit.

6. And best for last… this was 𝗞𝗮𝘁𝘆’𝘀 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝟮𝟲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀—and I scheduled a full photoshoot.

Still not sure she’s forgiven me (it’s been 7 years).

10 years later… still here, still evolving, still building something we believe in.
𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟲 — 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲.

In gratitude,
Staci

I was playing a 𝘿𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥 card game with my husband recently when this question came up:
“𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗱?”

Without hesitation, I said:
𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘨𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘰—𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘥.

How you do anything is how you do everything (most of the time). So if you want to become a better friend, partner, or parent, start by shifting your yoga practice into a listening practice.

When you listen (𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻) you begin to:
✨ embody the poses rather than perform them
✨ discover deeper layers of your practice
✨ train yourself to listen to understand, not just to respond

That’s where the real magic of yoga begins.

I say this with love: truly great listeners are rare. But when I meet one, I instantly think, “They’d be a damn good yoga student.”

With love,
SAM

P.S. Adam’s answer?
“𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴.”
He’s a marketing guru, and it drives him bananas when people conflate the two. I asked him, “marketing is the sociology of the business world, right?” He was proud of me for that one 💅🏻

Pss. Get the card game and play with your partner. Trust me.
